A few I carry:

How many of you fine gentlemen carry a fixed blade every day as opposed to or in addition to a folder?

If you do, which one(s)?

Wow, a new death chat is born.

I feel so free to say whatever I want, without being concerned about repeating myself.

The Israelis think of everything. That's probably why they're God's chosen people.

For a new gun owner, I recommend a quality revolver in .357.

You can fire .38 Special in it for cheap training fodder and so you're not developing a flinch from the blast & recoil of .357 full house loads.

The revolver is reliable, accurate, and simple to use....a true point & click interface.

The 28 pictured above is S&W's large frame. It's heavy, so it soaks up recoil. It is bulk though, and can be a bit much to carry.

Here's a mint Model 19 in .357.

It's a K frame, which is a medium frame. It is lighter and more comfortable to carry, but one should avoid a steady diet of .357 full power loads. Train with .38 and defend with .357 in a K frame.



They also made the 19 in a 2-3/4" barrel for CCW-



Of course if you want to go on the cheap, get either of these two-

The S&W Model 10, the most ubiquitous .38 police revolver in history-


Or the Ruger Service Six in .357


Both are frequently found for less than $300 at gunshops and pawn shops. Many are police trade ins that still have plenty of life left in them.

Me. I rotate. These & then some.


Actually, I carry 3 knives on my person. A fixed, a folder, and my Spyderco Ladybug.

Generally I carry my pepper shaker.

please wipe your feet before you enter this death chat!!!


smell that? new death chat smell!!!!

How about the new FN SCAR rifles? They're pretty cool but expensive.

Do you carry the fixed in your bag or on your belt?

i carry a fixed blade with firesteel

What do you carry, and do you carry it on your belt?

I only ask because I'm considering it myself.
